Just in time for Valentine's Day (or your anniversary or any other time Cupid's arrow strikes), Rykodisc offers up a fanciful dose of classic romantic film themes from the deep coffers of United Artists Pictures. Reel Love exists in a quixotic vacuum, harking back to the days when a lilting string quartet or a graceful horn line signaled the blossoming of a beautiful onscreen relationship. There's no "Music to Sign Pre-Nups By" here, no "Theme for an Unplanned Pregnancy"--just the pure, idyllic fairy-tale stuff from some of Hollywood's top-shelf sultans of swoon--Henry Mancini, André Previn, Alex North, et al. Better for you than a box of chocolates, less prickly than a dozen roses, Reel Love is the next best thing to making out at the drive-in--and, hey, no mosquitoes either. --Matt Hanks.
